Description jfarjona 2010-04-07 23:09:19 UTC 
Hello:

I cannot debug EJB-based apps.  Once Netbeans connects to the VM everything stops working.  You stop debugging (detach) and the app. server continues to work.
No, I have no breakpoints.  It just pauses Glassfish v3 until you detach, then everything goes back to normal.  Impossible then to debug.

Hi.  Since I do not have Vista x64, I am going to have to ask you far more questions than 'normal' to diagnose and resolve this.  

How did you start NetBeans?

How did you start the v3 server?

Are NB and GF using a 64 bit jvm... or is there some kind of mix-and-match?

Where is your x64 JVM installed?

Can you attach a screenshot of the IDE when this happens...  I am particularly interested in the Debugger tools...

from an e-mail exchange with the filer...

I am running both GF and NB with the 64-bit JVM.
I start GF from NB using the debug command.  The log says that it is deploying the application and then it stops everything (although in the NB console it shows that no process is paused).  As soon as you detach the debugger, GF continues to deploy the application.  I thought it was due to the recent update to JDK6 u19, but happens the same with u18.

Now, if I deploy the application, use it one time, and then attach to the debugger, then I am able to debug normally.

Juan: what is the info in the dialog that opens when you select the About item of the Help menu?

Hello guys:

I just tried by running on 32-bit JDK (both Netbeans and glassfish), same problem.
I tried also with Netbeans 6.9 beta, no luck, same problem.

cannot replicate with recent dev build of nb 7.0 and gf 3.1 on win 7.

Please reopen with detailed steps that I can follow to reproduce the issue...

Please include the steps necessary to create the project that you are attempting to debug and any other supporting projects.
